No problem. Thanks for the help. It does sort of look like an ornate leopard but I haven't a clue.

I've seen so many different pic of ornate leopards that I can't tell what's real and what's not
From what I can tell, ornates have a lot of red when they're young ...

The pic you posted shows a fish with a slender body, so I'm thinking hunter fish such as the ones I mentioned

Hopefully in a month or 3 it will fill out and show us what it really is

BTW, did I say good luck ?

That pic is from my tank. The wrasse is probably close to 4" long not sure if it will change much now.

It's not a Leopard Wrasse, it's a type of Halichoeres. I'll figure it out tomorrow if no one else does
